Silver.

New member with tow boys that love to hunt relics. My 14 year old just got his first silver 1896 barber half dollar with the minlab 600.
Thought he was getting bit by murder hornets. I'm more excited than him for sure.

That's a nice silver and it's old, 1896, very cool, I would guess it was dropped in about 1910 to 1915, it looks like a circulated coin, I'm sure still very valuable, silver being at an all time high too.

To my 14 year old and i it's priceless. He was getting a little discouraged I bought him a minelab 600 and a pro finder 35 pin pointer. Looking forward to our next adventure. Making plans to hunt my wifes family land in Bulgaria this summer.
